So, are we in the 'Oops' phase right now or what?

@roknrol @NickEast_IndieWriter
I thought there is extensive evidence that both Shell and Exxon actively thought themselves to be lying while paying researchers to say those things at those times.

[roknrol@beige.party]

@screwlisp I think you're right.

For clarity, I was referring to the public in general.

[redrobyn@mastodon.nz]

@NickEast_IndieWriter depends on which "we" you mean

Sadly oops and fuck are unevenly geographically distributed.

Ideologically some people are still on the isn't real end of the spectrum. There's also a "it's real and I don't care because the coloured people who live somewhere else and the poors everywhere are the ones who will die first" group not shown on the graphic

@roknrol @screwlisp I was thinking more about a scientific average, I couldn't even pretend to care about what the public in general thinks

[nickeast_indiewriter@mastodon.art]

@RedRobyn That is certainly true, but lets say on a scientific average for all living things?

[nickeast_indiewriter@mastodon.art]

@wendinoakland Oops and 'Oh shit, it's brown pants time' does seem have a significant statistical correlation...

[nickeast_indiewriter@mastodon.art]

@MiasAlt It's more like, 'We know climate change is real, and sure our children and gradnchildren will die, but saving them doesn't make me richer now."

[nickeast_indiewriter@mastodon.art]

@electricsheep I thought that was the Capitalist US, oligarch controlled Russia, and anti-humanitarian parts of the middle east?

[miasalt@sunny.garden]

@NickEast_IndieWriter I like yours better.

[ozzelot@mstdn.social]

@NickEast_IndieWriter
As a planet, we're way into "fuck"

[grayrattus@mastodon.social]

@NickEast_IndieWriter yes

[zynaesthesie@mastodon.social]

@ozzelot @NickEast_IndieWriter Half past “FUCK”, I presume

[reiddragon@fedi.catto.garden]

@NickEast_IndieWriter I'm pretty sure we're already at "fuck"

Even if we go completely carbon neutral yesterday, temperatures will be hotter for the rest of the century than they are today.

[lane@dice.camp]

@NickEast_IndieWriter

The last one is brought to you by Open AI.

[jmax@mastodon.social]

@NickEast_IndieWriter Nah. The trigger for that will be when we lose a major city.

[gock@woof.tech]

@NickEast_IndieWriter i thought the next phase was "nothing we could have done to stop this"?

[nickeast_indiewriter@mastodon.art]

@gock I think the 'don't look at us there's nothing we could've done' corporate policy is included as a subcategory of all the phases

[eibart@zirk.us]

@NickEast_IndieWriter it's not a change, it's the catastrophe

#climate

[mndflayr@metalhead.club]

@NickEast_IndieWriter

It's missing the "BP" part that says
"Climate change is real, and the fix is that individuals watch their carbon footprint while the industry continues raping the environment."

[corpomancer@mastodon.social]

@NickEast_IndieWriter FUCK! That's a massive quarterly earning on our oil sales.
